what would be the smallest mini digger you could use for feeding a jensen a540t chipper,

 

was looking @ a micro digger

 

advize ,

Jonny if I'm being honest, for all a chipper that size can handle, crane feeding would be pretty hard work , and slow going.

On 8" chippers plus they can handle big heavy lumps and fairly sizeable trees with brash, hence crane feeding making life easier.

Micro diggers have a short reach so pretty awkward.

Better building a frame and putting the lightest timber crane on the chipper and removing the hopper.

A crane like Flatters has on his trailer .

Again on such a small chipper, I don't see much benefit

Looks pretty slow to me. Better off feeding it in manually. cheers, steve

Nice tidy jobs Stephen, i love the one where you built a track out to the island/tree- just the sort of job i like to get stuck into...

Funny how you can get a selection of makes all '7 toners' yet some look much smaller than others- yours looks bigger than 7 ton. I think it comes down to the counterwight design yours/like the Takeuchi tb175 is of an old school design somehow looks bulkier/more overhang?
